we testified about how active he was in eastern libya near benghazi. we knew he was there when there was no terrorist involvement. there was eight committee chairman and subcommittee chairman based on our own sources of information, people in the government, primarily in law enforcement who told us that this is being discussed. we sent a letter to the secretary of state and to the attorney general asking them whether or not there is any discussion at all of the blind sheik being transferred. the answers we got are too cute. the state department says there is no plan at this time and they're not aware of any recent contact from senior officials on this issue. so they're not denying it. all they have to say is that the blind sheik will die in an american jail. no one is saying that. the only reason i can consider it is the president's whole apology approach, if we're nice to them, maybe they won't attack us. >> that gets us into much trouble, this idea of denying it. does this administration understand that there is still a war on terror going out there
